Título Electromagnetic fields - Potential hazards
Título original Elektromagnetische Felder - Potentielle Gefährdung [en alemán]
Información bibliográfica Oct. 1984, No.10, p.17-25. Illus. 68 ref.
Resumen A review of the potential health hazards of exposure to electromagnetic fields in the range of 1Hz-100kHz, and suggested exposure limits. Principles of hazard evaluation, a frequency-power density diagram, TLVs for organic effects, disturbances in heart function, stimulation of individual cells, stimulation threshold of alternating current, induction of tensions in the cellular membrane by electric fields, observed phenomena in connection with power densities below the stimulation threshold, range of harmless power densities; potential differences of 0.1mV produced by electromagnetic fields, phosphene and flicker phenomena, dangerous and harmless fields, power densities from electric and magnetic sources. Field strengths as a function of frequency, recommended at head and heart level.
